About Us


American Heritage Girls is a Christ-centered scouting program dedicated to the mission of building women of integrity through service to God, family, community and country.

St. James AHG Troop 1843 includes all grade levels in meetings twice a month after school. This is a great benefit for sisters in different grades who can enjoy the scouting experience together. All age levels join together for the opening and closing of each meeting. Each grade level breaks off for small group activities during the meeting. Various opportunities are provided to enhance life skills through our merit badge program, promote service to others and foster friendships.

Troop events include: social activities such as the Father/Daughter Dance, family bowling party, ice skating and roller skating; outdoor adventures through Camporee and summer camps; and service opportunities through the HUGS foster care project, Make a Difference Day and monthly parish “Donut Sundays.”
